[edit] Forum:Is that Palmolive?

This is a rather ... odd question, but in "The Host" (tng 4x23) Crusher and Troi are having a discussion "at the salon." Crusher appears to be soaking her fingers in a dish of Palmolive like the old commercials. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

[edit] nitpicks

• In an odd production error, the familiar ambient drone of the Enterprise disappears for about a minute while Crusher and Troi are sitting in Ten Forward, as Crusher is questioning whether or not she loved Odan or the host body that Odan had occupied.
• In some scenes it's possible to see that Gates McFadden, who plays Crusher, is pregnant; this wasn't part of her character so it was hidden behind objects, Crusher's blue lab coat, etc.

It was in this episode that had Trek's first girl-girl kiss, not DS9's "Rejoined" episode. I clearly remember the original ending with Beverly and Odan (in a female host), which showed Odan giving Beverly a brief soft kiss on the lips before leaving. However, that particular moment would later be replaced with Odan kissing her hand instead. I assume people complained about the kiss itself so production had it changed.170.143.252.33 14:03, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] What Was Her Problem?

After rewatching The Host, Im curious why folks have gravitated towards this being an Anti-Homosexual show? Dr. Crusher doesn't state, "sorry, yer a chick." Instead, its more of, "Yeah, Im a monogomist, you've been three people in less than a week. I R Confused." Forgive the oversimplification, but that seems a much more logical complaint than Crusher merely not wanting to be with a woman. Can someone please clarify why her dialog has been skipped over and her actions have been given totally different meaning? – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.134.97.122 (talk • contribs) .
